I now have 11 Jerry Blake brush piles ready to go for a swim this weekend and was thinking about setting up a bait attractor by one of them to keep bait in the area. Does anyone know what they are and do they really hold bait arround them?
I obviously know how to run fish from an area. Two weeks ago the Arkansas game and fish commision officers came close to pulling up to our boat to check us. When they saw me and recconised me they just started laughing and left. The know from past few stops I am in no danger from being over limit. Just thought a bait attractor would help out a brushpile get started. Any thoughts boys. Oops and girls.
Hey Gooch, when I fish Toledo bend I set up (attractors) with cottenseed cake and this usually works well for me. For attractors I put the c.cake in a pair of pantyhose with a brick or some kind of heavy weight and tie it off to a stump or a tree I plan to fish. It usually takes less than a day to have bait around the area. Another good attractor is to use a bail of alfalfa hay but it is a lot harder to sink but will last a lot longer (3-4 weeks). You can get both the c.cake and alfalfa hay at a feed store. Good Luck
